Ploughs, chaff cutters and steam engines

Edited by Ken Redmore The Society of Lincolnshire History and Archaeology

This is the story of enterprising men and women who provided the farmers' tools and machines for the farming revolution in Lincolnshire.

From the relatively small but tenacious T & J Fletcher of Winterton, still making implements successfully today after more than 150 years; to the large and diverse firm, Blackstone & Co of Stamford; from the very adaptable John H Rundle of New Bolingbroke, now noted for making and repairing fairground rides; to Charles Louis Hett of Brigg, who made his name through the manufacture of pumps and turbines for water supply and drainage; through two pioneering steam engines manufacturers in Boston - this book celebrates the wide-ranging achievements of Lincolnshire's agricultural engineers, iron founders and implement makers.
